Presumably this algorithm should be analyzing only the raw (though ASCII-like) byte stream, and so should refer to ASCII bytes (0xNN) instead of Unicode code points (U+NNNN). 101225 1 zcorpan 2014-02-24 10:03:33 +0000 Doesn't this need to be invoked from places where you have a string instead of a stream of bytes, e.g. video.canPlayType? 101235 2 gphemsley 2014-02-24 13:32:51 +0000 (In reply to Simon Pieters from comment #1) > Doesn't this need to be invoked from places where you have a string instead > of a stream of bytes, e.g. video.canPlayType? I think the jury's still out on that; is that dependent on bug 11984? 129714 3 d 2019-03-29 22:39:19 +0000 Parse a MIME type got rewritten and is now good on this front.
